Measuring efficiency of hospitals in the Czech Republic
Procházková, Jana ; Chalupka, Radovan (referee) ; Gregor, Martin (advisor)
This thesis estimates cost efficiency of 99 general hospitals in the Czech Republic during 2001-2008 using Data Envelopment Analysis and Stochastic Frontier Analysis. It tests comparability of their results finding out a certain qualitative similarity. Next, determinants were added into SFA and efficiency of Czech hospitals examined. The presence of inefficiency is group specific even having accounted for various determinants. The effects of determinants were tested. Inefficiency increases with teaching status, more than 20,000 treated patients a year, not-for-profit status, larger share of the elderly in the municipality and average salary in the district. Inefficiency decreases with less than 10,000 patients treated a year, larger population, higher unemployment rate and more hospitals in the region.

Possibilities of flow cytometry in analysis of cellular response to genotoxic stress
Havelek, Radim ; Řezáčová, Martina (advisor) ; Bílková, Zuzana (referee) ; Štětina, Rudolf (referee)
Possibilities of flow cytometry in analysis of cellular response to genotoxic stress Flow cytometry is a modern tool for interrogating the immunophenotype and functional characteristics of cells. It is a technique of quantitative single cell analysis that works by sensing optical properties of cells in a flow stream with laser beam. Analysis and differentiation of the cells is based on size, granularity, and whether the cell is carrying fluorescent molecules in the form of either conjugated antibodies or dyes. The cells may be stained with fluorescent dyes, incubated with fluorogenic substrate or labelled with fluorochrome-linked antibodies specific for molecules either on the surface or in the intracellular components of the cell. Flow cytometers are multiparameter, recording several measurements on each cell. Therefore, it is possible to identify a homogeneous subpopulation within a heterogeneous population of cells. When cells are exposed to genotoxic agent, they respond quantitatively and qualitatively according to the absorbed dose and the cell type. To cope with the resulting damage to cellular DNA, the temporary cell-cycle checkpoints and DNA damage response mechanisms are activated to allow more time for effective repair. However, if these mechanisms fail or the damage is irreparable, then...

The regular observance of obligatory school attendance in context of social benefits
JINDROVÁ, Markéta
The main task and objective of this bachelor thesis was to present a public research in know how of social benefits in observance of obligatory school attendence together with knowledge of an off take of social benefits depending on non observance of obligatory school attendance. Next objective was to present a comprehensive list of this issue. Besides these main objectives, partial objectives were determined e.g. to uncover the quality in communication between clerks and clients and also to compare their point of view on each other. For documentation purpose were made three different hypotheses. Hypotheses No.1: The aspirant for social benefits is convinced, that he has claim for benefits without any circumstances. Hypotheses No.2: The clients who dealt with clerks in the office don{\crq}t consider the behavior of the clerk in most cases willing. Hypotheses No.3: The knowledge of social benefits depending on observance of obligatory school attendance in the public have mostly just people who achieved secondary school education . Two methods (qualitative and quantitative analysis) are used for this project. To be more specific first method was mainly questioning together with an observation and the second was a questionary together with an interview. One questionary was concentrating on clients who mainly depends on benefits becase of their bad economical situation. Second questionary was concentrating on average population. The clerks from department for social matters in Klatovy and Domazlice were the interviewrs. The hypothese No.2 was confirmed. Clients in most cases believe that the behavior of clerks is unwilling. On the other hand the clerks do not agree with this statement. To determinate the real estate of this problem it would need more and longer research on a bigger group of respondents without the consideration on benefits. The hypothese No.1 also confirmed that the respondents are convincent of their claim on soscial benefits. Just the hypothese No.3 wasn´t confirmed. The reaserch showed that the knowledge and the subconscious about social benefits is good. The reason of a goood know how in public of social benefits can be discolosure of information thru the internet, a new information technology, the interest in social sphere or giving information in terms of education.
